White wine made from Malbec? Andeluna Blanc de Malbec is an intriguing Argentine white that turns expectations upside down. Produced entirely from black Malbec grapes grown in Mendoza's Uco Valley, it offers delicate aromas of jasmine and white rose, with fresh peach and apricot flavours and a crisp, refreshing finish. A fascinating alternative to more familiar white grape varieties.
The secret lies in gently separating the juice from the dark grape skins before they can impart their colour. Fermentation in stainless steel preserves the wine's floral freshness and delicate fruit character. An unusual discovery for curious wine drinkers and a conversation-starting gift for Malbec enthusiasts.

Andeluna Blanc de Malbec comes from the Uco Valley in Argentina's Mendoza region, where high-altitude vineyards benefit from abundant sunshine and cooler mountain temperatures. These conditions help the grapes develop attractive flavours while retaining the freshness needed for an elegant white wine.
Although Malbec is best known for producing deeply coloured red wines, the juice inside its dark-skinned grapes is naturally pale. By gently pressing the grapes and separating the juice from the skins before significant colour extraction takes place, Andeluna creates a white wine from a traditionally red grape variety.
The clarified juice undergoes cool fermentation in stainless-steel tanks, helping preserve delicate floral aromas and fresh fruit flavours. With no oak ageing or malolactic fermentation, the wine retains its crisp acidity and clean, refreshing character.
Andeluna Blanc de Malbec is a refreshing partner for seafood, grilled prawns, white fish and light chicken dishes. Its floral aromas and fresh stone-fruit flavours also complement summer salads and gently spiced Asian-inspired dishes.
Try it with grilled chicken and herbs, seafood pasta or a simple plate of fresh cheeses. Its unusual origins also make it an enjoyable wine to share at a tasting, particularly alongside a traditional red Malbec.
Serve chilled at approximately 10–13°C to enjoy its floral aromas and refreshing acidity.
